Most US Supreme Court cases fall under its appellate jurisdiction, meaning the case started in a trial court (U.S. District Court or an appropriate state court), and has exhausted its lower court appeals. Under these circumstances, the case is "On appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States."
The Supreme Court only accepts "federal question" cases, meaning the appeal must involve one or more (usually unresolved) issues of federal or constitutional law.
